چکیده
www.sciencemag.org SCIENCE VOL 333 5 AUGUST 2011 663 COVER A pair of chemical compounds (light blue and purple) target wild-type and mutant forms of the Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter, which mediates the parasite’s (yellow) resistance to the widely used antimalarial drug. Using high-throughput chemical and genetic analyses, Yuan et al. identify potential new antimalarial drugs that could be used in combination to suppress the development of drug resistance.

In this paper we argue that there are two distinct components of a theory of mind: a socialcognitive and a social-perceptual component. Evidence for this proposal is presented from various sources, including studies of children with Williams syndrome, a rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorder. Earlier work has demonstrated that people with Williams syndrome appear to be spared in the social-pe...
متن کاملSocial motivation in schizophrenia: The impact of oxytocin on vigor in the context of social and nonsocial reinforcement.
Experiential negative symptoms-including diminished motivation-have a profound impact on functional outcomes in schizophrenia. Animal research suggests that abnormalities in dopaminergic regulation can negatively impact effort exertion, a translational model that has been applied to individuals with schizophrenia. Paradigms that assess effort-based decision making, for example, suggest less lik...
متن کاملWhen things strike back: a possible contribution of 'science studies' to the social sciences
The contribution of the eld of science and technology studies (STS) to mainstream sociology has so far been slim because of a misunderstanding about what it means to provide a social explanation of a piece of science or of an artefact. The type of explanation possible for religion, art or popular culture no longer works in the case of hard science or technology. This does not mean, it is argu...
متن کاملIs it normal to be a principal mindreader? Revising theories of social cognition on the basis of schizophrenia and high functioning autism-spectrum disorders.
Schizophrenia and high functioning autism-spectrum disorders (ASD) are neurodevelopmental conditions that mainly impair social competence, while general intelligence (IQ) is spared. Both disorders have a strong ancillary role in theoretical research on social cognition. Recently the debate has started to be inflected by embodied and phenomenological approaches, which claim that the standard por...
متن کاملLanguage development in children with Williams syndrome: New insights from cross-linguistic research
Williams syndrome (WS) is a genetically based neurodevelopmental disorder, which is caused by a microdeletion of chromosome 7, more specifically, at the region of chromosome 7q11.23 (Doll & Grzeschik, 2001; Ewart et al., 1993; Korenberg et al., 2000). Due to its uneven cognitive profile, WS has recently been the focus of scientific research in the field of developmental cognitive neuroscience (...
